I think I might be able to help here. Back in my Boy Scout days, while on a trip that had a few troops in the same area, one of my buddies got into a scuffle with a fellow from another troop. (We were a pretty rough crowd of 14 year olds)

As a previous poster said, Florida bullwhips don't play. True Floridians call themselves "crackers" for this very reason.

Well anyway, the other guy in the scuffle goes back to his tent and gets his 12 foot bullwhip. This thing was a real deal, buckshot tipped Florida whip, and he knew how to use it. Well, he popped my buddy with it and cut him pretty bad, but he did not have time to do it again. My friend rushed him and beat his eyeballs shut.

So if you were to ask me, I would say, no. It would not be a very good weapon unless your opponent did not have much fight in him to begin with.
